About Noble Buffalo
Noble Buffalo is a one-man leathercraft shop in Saint Louis, MO making solid leather belts by hand. If you let me build your next belt, here is what you can expect:
- Solid straps of leather cut from a leather hide upon order
- Full Grain tanned hides that will last decades of heavy wear. No layers, stitching, glue, pressed leather, or "genuine leathers"
- Edges rounded & waxed to prevent fraying and friction. Never painted as a shortcut.
- 100% Solid Brass doesn't rust and won't crack like other metals
- Chicago Screws so you can swap out your buckle in the future
- You'll be supporting the move of manufacturing back to the USA, and you'll be supporting a small business in Missouri
I make belts one at a time as the orders arrive. I'll take the time to pick a good cut, measure exactly as ordered, and apply any customizations requested. Please allow 1-3 business days for item creation. If you have questions before placing your order, I'm always happy to help.

Bestselling Leather Belts
These are the leather belts I've been making the most of in 2022. Every belt you see is: Full Grain, Solid Brass, and 100% handmade by Noble Buffalo in Saint Louis, MO
You'll notice two price points on my handmade belts:
- $75 price is my standard belts, still 100% handmade from full and top grain leather hides, given the same level of care and treatment, and requires the same 1-3 days for creation.
- $95 price will get you the flagship leather hides offered by the oldest American leather tanneries in the United States. These belts are made using Grade 1 hides from leather tanneries that have been around for over 100 years. If you want a fantastic looking belt that may outlast you...this is the collection you want!
